- Founder
Peter Jabaly
I began my legal career with the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General before transitioning to private practice. Having worked in both the public and private sector, I have accumulated experience and knowledge that has proved invaluable.
In my practice, I focus on business litigation. My experience spans all aspects of business law, from complex immigration cases, corporate regulations, small business growth strategy, and more.
I previously served as Chair of the D.C. Bar Trial Practice Subcommittee and written for the Journal of Intellectual Property Law and Practice published by Oxford University Press.
